Back to school means back to the private equity-dominated housing market. Blackstone is now the largest owner of student housing in the United States, as students organize against neglect, fees and predatory leasing practices. inthesetimes.com/article/why…

The NLRB has ruled PeaceHealth Southwest's change to the healthcare of our Professionals, who are currently bargaining their first contract, as illegal. Now they are going to need to make these almost 250 workers whole for the outsized costs they incurred columbian.com/news/2026/aug/…

I’m proud to have the support of @OFNHP - they show up every day to care for Oregonians, and I will always have their backs. Together, we’ll protect Medicaid, stand up for essential workers, and make sure every Oregonian can get the care they need.

In a huge victory for the Professionals at @peacehealthsw, the NLRB ruled PeaceHealth's unilateral healthcare change illegal. They will now receive a settlement to address the harms they faced. ofnhp.aft.org/news/peaceheal…

In this economy, the rich and powerful are getting even richer, while working people scrape for crumbs as prices skyrocket on everything. A union contract is how we take back our power in this economy. Join the movement: aflcio.org/formaunion

Making voting harder hurts shift workers, people working long hours and anyone who can't afford to spend hours waiting in line. We should be making it easier, not harder, for eligible voters to participate in our democracy. apnews.com/article/trump-mai…

Parents of disabled children are often forced to navigate gaps in health care, child care & education on their own. Under a federal Republican trifecta, @byreginamahone argues that reproductive & disability justice movements must build a united front. inthesetimes.com/article/rep…

President Trump's executive order to replace federal workers with loyalists betrays a foundational American value: that our government works for the people, not for a political agenda. We will keep standing in the way of this attack on federal workers. aflcio.org/press/releases/af…

.@rweingarten and @FlyingWithSara released the following statement: “Our response to the Great American AI Act is simple: Hard no. This bill is a giveaway to the AI industry and a handful of trillion-dollar companies, at the expense of American workers." afacwa.org/union-leaders-urg…

“We won’t be pushed around.” Workers at a seafood processing center say they were extorted, retaliated against, and treated as disposable. Now they’re fighting back with a class action lawsuit, NLRB charges, and public pressure for reinstatement. labornotes.org/blogs/2026/05…

Oh we know! What is “American Federation of Labor?” Thank you to Jeopardy!, which had an entire category last night about union history. The AFL and CIO unified in 1955 to build even more worker power across the country, and we’ve never looked back since ✊

A strike is not just a symbolic protest. It works because we withhold something that the employer needs: production, profits, and above all, control over us. Our guide to striking breaks down how to plan, build, and sustain a powerful strike. Learn more: labornotes.org/strikes
